Dark Ride · May 1, 2007

Namco Bandai Games announced on its Japanese Web site that it is selling its majority interest in developer Monolith Soft to Nintendo. According to the publisher, Nintendo has acquired 80% of the company's shares.

Best known for their Baten Kaitos and Xenosaga series of RPGs, Monolith Soft is also currently at work on Nintendo's Disaster: Day of Crisis for the Wii.

FYI:

Do not confuse Nintendo Monolith Soft with Monoloth Productions, Inc which is a different company and is responsible for great titles such as:

FEAR
No One Lives Forever™ 2
Aliens vs. Predator™ 2
etc.

Talking about Monolith (Productions, Inc), No One Lives Forever™ 2 was a brilliant title. I hope they release No One Lives Forever™ 3

I hope they pick up the xenosaga series and develop it for the ps3 :

ray:: even though the third one was supposed to answer a lot of questions (which it has so far) I Wanted the whole 6 episode thing, with xenogears being the 5th one.
